Last names?

So, I have tried to ask this question numerous times on discord during the live streams...
I was wondering the format of the names in game. A friend of mine and I were having a discussion, and we both agreed: It’s usually the first thing that annoys me in a game, and one of the first limitations you come across. It may not seem like a big deal to some. To me, it’s pretty important.
Can you have a last name? Like in the days of EQ, you were able to add a surname at level 20. I think that’s a nice touch. If not, will it allow spaces? That’s something that has irritated me on a vast array of games—having to put my name as ‘SaeyoPrayers,’ or even Saeyo_Prayers, rather than ‘Saeyo Prayers.’ I have used my name for almost 20 years, since 1999’s launch of Everquest, and I don’t plan on changing anytime soon. Anywhoo...🤨

We know families are a thing, so it is unclear if your surname comes in game with your family or if it is selected at character creation/individually.
Personally, I hope it is tied to the family.
Very rarely do I use last names.

So the fact that you can have a surname is official.
